  • Here some the reasons that some of us like to build (or buy) copy guitars that pay ohmage to other big manufactures. The why, the how and the expectations. Zero Fluff. Today's example is the 199.00-dollar Leo Jaymz Rickenbacker 4003 style DIY bass kit from Amazon. Just what does is sound like with no effects. Stay tuned to find out!

    We will always have the self-righteous ones who hate what ever is not the status quo. Then we have the logical thinkers who experiment and come to real conclusions based in reality and not in myth or regurgitation of other regurgitators.
    Moral of the story. Think for yourself and don't be afraid to admit when you are wrong. Just because you love it does not make it the best for everyone. And you opinions are not FACTS.

    I wish I couldn't play very well like that. Well done. I'm getting ready to start the Leo Jaymz AX bass model. I plan to change the body shape some. Thanks for the video.

    you have made it so easy for me to decide on this build. I have been considering it for months and months. I have watched your build video and it will for sure help me with my future build of "Climmy" named after Cliff Burton and of course Lemmy Kilmister. Great tips and I have found site in the UK called RickySounds and they have all rick parts that I will need. Thank you again and you for sure got a sub from me :)

      @BUDGETGUITAR it will be great but scary as I have never built anything like this.

    OK, you've convinced me. I'm going to order and build one of these kits. In 1993, I bought a used 1986 Rick bass (4003?) for $495. Can you believe the price? In near perfect condition, too! Unemployment claimed it several years later, unfortunately. I loved that bass, even though I'm a guitar player. I certainly can't justify the cost of a new Rick bass now, even a used one... So, based on your videos (unboxing, building, modding, etc.) of this kit, I'm going to get one. Thanks for all that you do!

      Thank you my friend, for those kind words. I simply love this bass. Something tells me you will too. Thank you so much for watching. Please let me know what you think of your kit.

      Just shy of $1400 in todays money...(Still a 1/2 price bargain, unthinkable today)

    Be aware the hardware might be terrible. My build came out great though. Mine was a Chinese fake so the real Leo models are probably better 😂

    Why build a kit? easy. If you're a Beatles fan you can give it the Sgt. Pepper psychedelic paintjob without feeling guilty about wrecking an expensive Ric
